I was pretty excited and motivated from what i saw on the news last night. Lucas film will be opening its 1st animation studio in Asia - Singapore !!! Somehow this news brought back the passion for 3D animation and modeling. It broke the crystal of dead slumber which engulfed me since eons ago. Another catlyst is that I will be going to further study my Japanese. Probably at Yano if I can scheduled into its class. My mum seems to be willing to lend me some handy cash for my Japanese studies. :)

I have discussed this with a friend who was intending to further his Jpn studies. But he is now so busy as he is undergoing his uni courses as well. He needs to analyse Yano's textbook which my friend (Xrystal) who is studying there said that its the same as Inoue's and also the lecture's notes. Xrys is too busy to meet up. Rather both are too busy to meet up for whatever which need to be done. I emailed Yano's and I think the pricipal Yano san replied. He reckoned I have JLPT 2 (at least he said) standard...WAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA...happy SIA~~~!!! My level roughly estimated is between JLPT 3 and JLPT 2. Its neither here or there and I dun like the idea of dangling in between 2 levels. My aim if of course to attend JLPT 1 and I truely hope to make good use of this JLPT 1 standard.

I was pretty free since I finished the 16000+ words translation. I somehow got knowledge of the amount which was paid to the Korean translator for the same website. He/She was paid US$1080. My colleague got hold of this info by accident and he showed it to me. I jokingly told him that I will not mind if Im paid for the same amt in Sing dollars. I am quite surprised I was told to do professional level translations when I do not even hold a professional translator cert. My O level Mandarin is only equilavent Pri 2 at most in Taiwan and China. Of course my translation will not be on par !

Its most obvious my boss is trying to cut cost but I think he made a pretty bad choice. Try translating this in Mandarin "

What the hell is this ??!

Enough said.
